Always & Forever

Prologue

^^^Picture above is young Jasper^^^

The day had started out like any other day.

The boy of seven years woke up next to his older sister and brother. He sat up and pushed at their shoulders until they woke up. His brother was the first to wake. He sat up and pulled his young brother into his arms.

"Leave Rebekah to sleep, Jasper. She was up late." Niklaus said. Jasper pouted but nodded anyway. Niklaus carried Jasper out of their family hut and put him down outside. Everyone, besides Rebekah, were now awake. Finn and Elijah were cutting wood so they'd have enough to last through the fast approaching winter. Their mother was collecting herbs, for her witchcraft no doubt. Their father was off somewhere, probably hunting. Both boys were thankful for their fathers absence.

"Henrik!" Jasper yelled and ran towards his brother. The two boys were soon off playing.

Niklaus and Elijah were practicing fighting with swords when their father returned with two dead rabbits. The brothers put their swords down and the family gathered for dinner.

"Where are Henrik and Jasper?" Their mother, Esther asked.

"I'll go find them mother." Kol said. He walked out of the hut and left in search of the boys.

He found them playing by the river. Kol stopped and just watched his two youngest brothers playing. They both looked innocent and Kol wanted to protected that innocents. Henrik, being twelve, was soon expected to start fighting with the others. Kol was surprised that their father hadn't started training him already.

"Boys! Dinner is waiting for us." Kol called and both boys came running with grins on their face. Kol put a hand on Jasper's shoulder and led the boys back home. When they got there, they all sat down for their dinner. After dinner, the family escaped to the hidden caves. The full moon was out.

Later that night, Jasper woke to Niklaus and Henrik getting ready to leave the cave. Jasper sat up and rubbed at his eyes.

"Where are you going?" He asked in a sleepy voice. Niklaus and Henrik both jumped and then looked to him. Both boys relaxed when they saw it was Jasper who'd woken up. Niklaus moved and crouched down in front if him.

"We're just going to see something."

"Can I come?"

"No, Jasper. You need to stay here, okay?"

"But why?" Jasper pouted. Niklaus sighed and placed his hands on Jasper's shoulders.

"I just need you too. Can you do that for me?" Niklaus smiled when Jasper nodded and laid back down. It was always like that with the two of them. Niklaus and Jasper always seemed to have a closer connection then the other siblings. Niklaus kissed Jasper's forehead and pulled the blanket up over him. With that Niklaus stood up and he and Henrik left to go watch the wolves.

Even though Jasper wanted to follow his brothers, he didn't. He stayed in the caves and curled up next to his mother. Subconsciously, Esther put her arms around Jasper and pulled him closer.

Jasper woke when Esther stood up. He sat up and stretched. He looked around for Niklaus and Henrik but didn't see them. Shrugging his shoulders, Jasper walked out of the caves with Esther, holding her hand.

Jasper stood with Rebekah when Niklaus and Henrik finally appeared. Only something wasn't right.

Niklaus had tears running down his face and Henrik was limp in his arms. For Jasper, then next few hours were confusing. When Niklaus told everyone what happened, Esther had rushed Jasper inside and he'd been told to stay there. He wasn't aloud to leave and he didn't understand why.

Two hours later Rebekah sat down and told Jasper what had happened. Henrik was dead, killed by the werewolves. Jasper was sad, but he didn't cry.

Soon, his whole family were in their home. All of them wore sad and depressed looks. All except their father who just looked angry.

Mikael gave all his children a glass of wine, even Jasper who'd been told growing up that he wasn't old enough yet. When Jasper had his first sip he coughed, not liking the taste it left in his mouth.

Esther suddenly grabbed Jasper in her arms. Jasper looked confusedly up at his mothers but she ignored him and looked at her other children with a sad look.

Jasper's head snapped up when he heard a scream and the sound of a sword cutting through flesh. His eyes widened and he started to struggle in his mothers arms. He screamed when he saw Mikael stab the sword through Elijah, then Kol, then Rebekah and then finally Niklaus.

Jasper's eyes were wide in fear when he saw all his siblings dead on the floor. Tears flowed down his face and his whole body shook. Esther made soothing sounds in his ear and rubbed his arms. It didn't help.

Mikael looked at Jasper with a frown.

"I'm sorry to do this to you son, but it must be done. For your own safety." Mikael said. Esther held Jasper tighter to her body as Mikael thrust the sword into Jasper's chest...

...........

Jasper sat up with a gasp.

His hand moved to the spot where he remembered the sword stabbing him but he felt nothing.

He heard a gasp to his left and looked. Rebekah sat there with wide eyes as she looked at Jasper.

"J-jasper? Is that you?" She asked.

"Yes." Jasper said, only it wasn't Jasper....but it was Jasper. His voice sounded older, not like the seven year old he had been. He looked down at himself and saw that his once seven year old body....was gone. Jasper wasn't the scrawny seven year old anymore, no, now he was a muscular teenager.

Jasper was in shock, so were the rest of his siblings as they looked at him.

It was a night of shock for all the Mikaelson siblings.

Their father had killed them.

They were now immortal.

There once seven year old little brother now looked nineteen.

They now drank blood.

They couldn't walk in sunlight unless they wore a special made ring.

The vervain plant now burnt them.

Niklaus and Jasper....weren't Mikael's sons.

They were werewolves.

Esther curses them, making them only vampires.

Esther is killed.

Mikael now hunts them.

A promise is made.

Always and Forever.
